Introducing Ubuntu Electronics Remix 9.10

"We are proud to present today a new Ubuntu-based (or Remix)
Linux distribution, this time for electronics. Called Ubuntu
Electronics Remix, or UER for short, it is based on the popular
Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) operating system and comes as a Live DVD
ISO image with lots of free electronics software. Except for the
electronics software, everything else is exactly the same as in the
original Ubuntu 9.10 distribution.

"The goals of the Ubuntu Electronics Remix operating system are
to make Ubuntu easy to use for electronics, to promote the use of
100% and open source applications for electronics, to create a Live
CD with electronics programs, and provide good tutorials for using
Ubuntu Linux for electronics design. "The software included in
Ubuntu Electronics Remix is Free Open Source Software with
developed active communities. This means you get all the power of
electronic software with all the advantages of open sources
software." – was stated on the project's website. You can
